Viable, liable, it’s undeniable
Living from the start
Because inside’s a beating heart
It’s a miracle from the Lord
Shakeable, breakable, it’s unmistakable
Fragile be the word
They’re alive just yet unheard
They’re a miracle from the Lord
Never to be heard from again
In the end you’ll be longing to know me, you’ll see
Privacy, selfishly, it’s fundamentally
Killing innocents
Not original intent
It’s a mockery of the Lord
Silently, violently it’s elementary
Wounding next of kin
Never know what would have been
It’s a mockery of the Lord
Wonder if I’d be president
Or a light in the world just like Jesus Christ was
